Stateless

In the past two decades, Tashi Dorji has traveled a long road, recording several dozen albums and touring the world, playing his guitar solo and in collaboration with inspired others. Gifted with a sensitive ear to the clarion call of intuitive artistry, he is forever picking up his instrument and reaching through it to find new sounds. In this, he has distinguished himself among those who listen to improvised music as an incisive, distinctive player of moments. We told Tashi we?d love for him to make a record for us and he said he?d love to do it. That was the end of the discussion. No parameters. He thought about it a bit, decided to make an acoustic guitar record, then he made it and here it is. Very beautifully recorded, a probing recital in which music, the tex- ture of the instrument and the nature of the space in the moment which it is played are all of equal significance.
